Running vmtest on RV64
======================
To speed up testing and avoid various dependency issues, it is recommended to
run vmtest in a Docker container. Before running vmtest, we need to prepare
Docker container and local rootfs image. The overall steps are as follows:

1. Create Docker container as shown in link [0].

2. Use mkrootfs_debian.sh script [1] to build local rootfs image:

.. code-block:: console

  $ sudo ./mkrootfs_debian.sh --arch riscv64 --distro noble

3. Start Docker container [0] and run vmtest in the container:

.. code-block:: console

  $ PLATFORM=riscv64 CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-linux-gnu- \
    tools/testing/selftests/bpf/vmtest.sh \
    -l <path of local rootfs image> -- \
    ./test_progs -d \
        \"$(cat tools/testing/selftests/bpf/DENYLIST.riscv64 \
            | cut -d'#' -f1 \
            | sed -e 's/^[[:space:]]*//' \
                  -e 's/[[:space:]]*$//' \
            | tr -s '\n' ',' \
        )\"
